Prerequisites

Configuration

OpenCode configures MCP servers via a JSON file. Add the following to ~/.config/opencode/opencode.jsonc:
{env:LIGHTON_API_KEY} is OpenCode’s syntax for reading an environment variable at runtime. The key is never stored in the config file. Make sure LIGHTON_API_KEY is set in your shell environment, you can grab your key from the LightOn Console. To scope the server to a single project instead, place the same snippet in opencode.jsonc at the root of your project.

Verification

  1. List all configured MCP servers:
  2. Confirm lighton appears and shows as authenticated.
  3. Test the connection with a prompt like:
You’re all set. From any OpenCode session you can now ask it to search or ingest documents in your LightOn workspaces directly.
